So the latest player to be linked with the Arsenal is 23 year old French starlet Loic Remy but do we want him? I don’t know a lot about him, but do we really need another French hopeful? I would sooner see us go after a out and out goalscorer. I know little about him, save he’s scored 13 goals in a poor side, but I’m sure Nikki B could get more in that league, if we were going to add a youngster to our forward line I would sooner have the Italian Inter player, at least he is tall.
Yes I know he’s trouble, but so is Arshavin.
Now Sol Campbell has joined his manager saying that Fabianski needs more games, there’s a surprise, Campbell wants a new contract and he happens to be agreeing with his manager. Now I think Sol is terrific, I would keep him, but Fabianski should go out on loan, I want Joe Hart next season.
Tonight the two upstarts play each other, I hate them both and would sooner have Everton or Villa there, but it will be one of them, to see the spuds go above us would hurt, but it may teach the club a lesson, however if I had to choose, it would be a City win or a draw so that we at least finished 3rd, having got just 1 point from the last 12 after us having the easiest run in says we deserve nothing, but I am an Arsenal fan and will take what we can get at the end of the day.
I think the last few games have showed us what we feared, Vela, Diaby and Eboue have to go, Diaby has skill but doesn’t have much else, Vela just isn’t that good and Eboue is in the way of a decent player, at best he’s cover at right back but even Sagna like Clichy can’t cross a ball to save their lives, so maybe we should cash in there as well.
Almunia is shocking and Denilson just isn’t good enough, Gallas is a crock and should be shown the door with Fish head, add to that mob the fringees that will never make it and I think we could bring in £25mil, put that with the £40mil from Ade and Kolo plus the transfer fund of at least £30mil, as that’s what we’ll get from the EPL this season and we would have close on £100mil to spend on ready made players.
There is no excuse this coming season, we clearly need new blood and we can afford it, we paid £130mil off our debt last season which is massive by anyone’s standards, our debt now is next to nothing and if you add in the property sales we have to come, then we have no debt, Arsene you have failed in project youth, learn from your mistakes. Please.
If teams like Blackburn, Stoke and Wigan can turn us over, then their players are at least as good as ours, if it were tactics that beat us, then our manager is clearly crap at tactics, either way there is no excuse next season, either our players are not good enough or our manager is inept, something has to give.
SHOW US THE MONEY ARSENAL!
The Fabianski howler was so obvious, why on earth allow yourself to get sandwiched in between 3 big players? Don’t blame fat Sam, thank him for exposing the weakness everyone in football saw apart from Arsene Wenger. If we don’t learn from it then we have nothing to look forward to next term except an awful lot more of the same.
There are some out there that are happy with this season, well they can’t be Arsenal fans can they? They must be Arsene fans. I am planning some kind of demonstration this weekend, I don’t mean a ‘Manager out’ deal, I mean a ‘spend our money please’ one, if you think I’m wrong then tell me, if you think I’m right the give me some ideas. And nothing that will get me banned!
This is our club, this isn’t Monaco or Grampus8, this is the Arsenal. If the Arshavin comments are true, then please don’t sell him, let him spend 6 months in the stiffs, what is the point in continually increasing the players contracts when we allow them to leave when they want? That is naive at best and completely unintelligent at worst, it doesn’t even get manager loyalty, Cesc has a contract until 2014, so in my book he stays until 2014 and if we want to sell him, then do that in 2013, if he starts playing badly, then shove him in the stiffs, screw player power, they earn enough, it’s time to stand up and show them who is boss, MAN UP ARSENE.
If we were winning anything other than the Emirates cup, I could understand the extended contracts and the big wages, but people, we have won zip for 5 years, zip. So why on earth are we doing it and then claiming poverty, it’s shockingly bad management, and that means all of them, from Wenger to Gazidas.
Have a great day Grovers, tomorrow we could be in third spot and tomorrow we go to the polls to vote out this shower of benefit paying, economy ruining half witted puss bags, this is not a political blog, I wouldn’t dream of advising anyone who to vote for, but remember tonight when you are snuggled up in your Arsenal quilt that David Cameron is a Gooner!
Fuck me, did you just see that slaphead Spud fan with the zee zee top beard
Since you lot on the whole Politics thing, who is the best PM of the last few years?
Or is it as I have said, you lot just votes on the basis of who would do the lest amount of damage to life as you know it?
Negative is a reverse euphemism for defensively solid.
I hope we are ‘negative’ next year.
That’s the problem tho vertigo I’d much rather go back to those darks days than the complete and utter social breakdown this countrys found itself in if we keep this lot in power we will never get rid as the welfare state will just get bigger and turkeys don’t vote for Xmas do they if you get my drift!
Pedro, Agree mate only one more day mind (hopefully)
that’s me over and out for the evening catch you all soon
Yikes, close
Haha Pedro.
We might as well be voting for Will Young or Gareth Gates…..
My local MP seems a decent enough chap. That’s the only reason I’d vote….don’t really want red or blue.
It’s like voting between Chelski and Manyoo.
Zeus: I think the damage is done
Thats a stamp, Bennett bottled it.
Negativity is not putting your foot on the gas when a team is there for the taking and you must win. Like Benitez forever taking Torres off, and going on to lose the game
Heh, gambon’s in his element..
There was me thinking Citeh had let in more goals than us.
Gambon, you’re always negative.
so it looks like arshavin aint goin anywhere
lol, touche.
I think thats just in his character, he seems far happier when everyone’s on a bit of a downer.
http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2557/news/2010/05/05/1910351/breaking-news-franck-ribery-out-of-champions-league-final-as
Thats a massive blow.
Crouch is useless.
Zeus: yes, that’s a massive blow for the Maureen haters amongst us. Me included. Problem is, I have a very, very small soft spot for Inter
Inter 1-0 Roma. Coppa Italia. 86mins played.
Inter going for a rear treble. As if Maureen needed an extra pep in his step.
“rear treble”
Isnt that what George Michael does in an LA Toilet?
Utterly ridiculous from the Roma captain – as Balotelli heads towards the penalty area Totti takes a massive swing at him from behind, clearly taking him out in a fit of frustration and he is given his marching orders. Roma are down to 10.
************************
HEHE.
Gambon
lol.
rare*
Tevez’s work rate is superb
THAT’S FULL TIME – INTER ARE COPPA ITALIA CHAMPIONS!
***************
1 down, 2 to go.
Shit Spuds 1-0
OH FFS. CROUCH OF ALL PEOPLE.
the spuds deserved it – hopefully city has a mass exodus this summer, and are in disarray next year
ha totti apparantly kicked balotelli. totti rules
So, if were lucky we’ll finishh 2 ahead of Spurs.
These are dark days.
Say again keyser
And Spuds add £40m to their transfer kitty. Which no doubt ‘arry will manage to double!
Commentators curse Reggie, heh.
faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkk
spuds in the champions league and on for 3rd.
faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacccccccccccckkkkkk
Micky
Isn’t Harry do for prison this summer?
ffs … fuckin spuds … ruined my fuckin day right there
Why do Citeh have soo many ginger fans ?!
fuckin city … score u fuckin mercenaries good for nothing bitches
Zeus: nah, seen the guards right!
Ade is unbelievably lazy! He is only up for it when he plays Arsenal. shit.
AW, I hope you are watching this match and am sure you will notice what goal keeping really means. It is really sad that Spurs will upstage us for 3rd and then I’ll see what you and the lousy board will do about signings.
Spurs right now are better than us! Fact
Wonder why Mancini took Bellamy off? Should have been Ade! He’s lost the match on that wrong move!
Clutching for straws here, but screw you Liam Oasis.
This must be teh worst few weeks in the history of Arsenal
humiliated in the CL, humiliated in the league, Spurs in the CL, and Wenger tells us not to expect many signings.
Speaking of Labour circa ’97, things can only get better!
Mancini is a fuckin idiot … why the fuck would someone bring him in is beyond me ..
Can our season get any worse than this !!
reggie
yes it can
wait till next week
argh the cunts
3rd place in doubt.
We are fucked!!! Goodbye 3rd place……………
Hey, That spuds team showed more heart and soul and dedication to the cause than our team has all year, and for that they should be applauded. I don’t give a hit who they are, they showed Arsenal how it’s done.
I’m really an optimist and I’m fuckin fed up … I have loved you but now either pull this shit together (mix eperience up) or kindly fuck off Monsieur. Enough is enough, if Barca mixes it up with the amount of talent they have, guess what that makes of us. I am pissed off out of my fuckiiing head right now.
This is bad. Very, very bad.
Seeing them spud cunts celebrate like that is making me feel sick!!
Stonroy
fuck off praising those cunts.
Spurs play better football than we do, and over the season, probably deserve third place.
hate to say it but well played spurs. showed everything this wenger girly team hasnt got. heart,passion , guts,you name it. are you watching wenger and you diaby
The CL competition has lost a bit of sheen in the past 5 minutes.
Mancini off then eh!
I bet the Spuds fans dont need to worry about their club showing some ambition in the transfer market.
You just watch them invest in the Summer.
We could well be the 3rd placed London team this time next year.
Hey it could even be Sunday
well played spurs??
what the fuck is this?
I think we MUST play 5 defenders + 3 defensive midfielders & 2 goalkeepers against Fulham!!!!
shittiest season of all, fuck it
Cmon Burnley.
Don’t worry lads, we’ll beat Fulham……….won’t we?
The only good to come out of this cunt of a result, is that we will find out who wants to be employed by us next season, on Sunday.
CL Qualifiers. Here we come ..
With Fatigue from the world cup, we could actually lose in the qualifiers and be out of CL.
chozzer.. err… maybe
well, i kind of like the fact we have to at least draw to get third. That only seems right.
to think that if we actually beat em cunts they would be out of CL makes me sick, absolutely sick to the stomach
For fuck sake!
Don’t be such fucking loosers people. We need one point from Fulham at home to secure the third place.
Besides, not having Ade the Whore in the CL serves him just right.
Paul king
I wouldnt give a fuck to be honest. I hope we go out of the CL as early as possible. we wont win it and we could have a proper crack at the league.
Now now AA23 be a good fella and take it easy mate. If you don’t think my statement is true (which deep down you know it is) then there is a way to say it.
The spuds wont invest all the 40m ,you can bet your life twittchy Harry will trouser at least half of it,thieving cunt
Have to admit, it does make the game on Sunday a bit more exciting at least.
no choice but to win at home.. if we lose its gg.
Yeh AA23,
Stonroy is right (Hate to admit it) whether you hate Spurs or not which we all do, the point is they have shown more grit in 2 games (vs Us & Man city) than we have all season!
So relax pal…Its hard to be optimistic with an in form Fulham coming to play a “I dont give a shit” Arsenal team at the moment..
If we don’t beat a weakened Fulham team at home I would be very surprised.
Fuck the Spuds, fuck them and their CL spot! Let’s hope we hold on to 3rd and then McClaren with his Dutch 20 something’s can turn their CL delusions into a fucking nightmare!
Stonroy
Read your comment back.
you are sickening.
one tequila two tequila three tequila floor…
Peace Gooners – It is party time
Have a great night!
Johan
That is clutching at straws…ade will prob get it next year.
I suppose the protest will be postponed because the useless, no-good motherfuckers need our support now.
I dont like to be negative, but I really dont think we will beat fulham at the weekend.
Just wanted a little fun tonight. Thanks Mancini.
Nite all.
Over and Out.
Rob from aus
you can jog on as well
praising them cunts like that.
“I hate to admit it but spurs showed heart soul, grit…
you sound like a mug mate.
Feel sick. but they deserved to win, hope they get knocked out 1st round.
upside Ade, ha ha
Yeh i’m off to work!
Fuck i hate Tottenham!
AA23,
Grow up chump!
http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2559/rumours/2010/05/02/1904917/arsene-wenger-will-break-with-convictions-to-raid-premier-league-
Is this true?
AA23 how old are you mate? What do you do for a living? Something that doesn’t involve using that little muscle upstairs I would imagine.
Don’t worry about Spurs. ‘Arry will be doing his manager duties from behind the bars.
And lest we forget, this a man with a Phd in bankrupting clubs. This is the heady heights for the hilarious dreaming Scum.
As Jimmie Cliff said, the harder they come, the harder they fall. TYhey will be bankrupt soon. They can buy all they want.
Like I said though, the CL has lost a bit of sheen now.
just woke up, fell asleep watching the game….so our dearest spuddlings won…..lol..we’re fucked
Spurs in the top 4.
What a shame.
And can still finish above us?
Where have we made improvements from last season again?
People we are not fucked, we will win against Fulham, I’m sure of it, when we take our fingers out of our arse we can win.
get back in your cot a23
The thought of Harry being someones bitch has cheered me up just a little bit
Confident
Maybe. He said as Chelsea and Man Utd look abroad, we may find the English market a little cheaper.
Again trying to do things on the cheap. (Long exhale)
Harry Redknapp bitch of cell block 4.
Spurs fully deserved their victory.
Gomes is world class. King is world class. Both Bale and Lennon are better than Walcott by miles.
The hardest for them to find in the summer is a world class striker.
We would never be able to keep a clean sheet in a big match. We need a CB, a RB, two holding MF and a World Class GK.
How can we compete with the elite with Denilson and Diaby.
FACK, we are going to b e fourth!! Good wenger, buy just two players( 1 striker) en our defensive problems are gone. Fuck off!!! Whole facking arsenal is one disgrace. We are going to be fourth!! We can’t even get a draw against fulham!! Hate wenger!! Shut the fuck off, it’s all his fault not the boards, he can spend but simply doesn’t! And the board does extend his contract because there comes money in. But if there was a manager that would spend then we can spend but wenger simply doesn’t!! Fuck off!! WE ARE GOING TO BE FOURTH!! GUYS!!
Confident.. bollocks that reporter is someone new and doesn’t know wenger.
Cahill, Hangelaand, Hart, Chamakh, Parker, Milner?
Fack me… That is almost 50 mill!
No facking way!
Can we stop saying Gomes is World Class…
Fuck what has Wenger done to these fans?
shitty were, well. er shitty
In:
Buffon (juve), Cahill (bol), Kjaer (pal), Chamakch (free), Matuidi (st. et), campbell (1 year)
out:
almunia, fabianski, shitvestre, senderos, denilson, eduardo, vela, simpson, randall, barazite, gilbert, sunu
loans:
wilshire, jet, lansbury, bartley, conquelin, frimpong, Eastmond
Squad:-
GK: Buffon, Sczeshney, Mannone
RB: Sagna, Eboue
LB: Clichy, Gibbs
CB: Vermaelen, Campbell
CB: Kjaer, Cahill
DM: Song, Matuidi, Djourou
CM: Fabregas, Ramsey
CAM: Nasri, Diaby
RF: Chamackh, Walcott
CF: Van Persie, Bendtner, Wellington
LF: Arshavin, Rosicky,
Spurs at the moment is a very strong team. They have a good keeper, good fullbacks and midfield and King and Dawson are really getting better in the CH position. they also have good strikers. Who’s to say they will not get ahead of us, next season? Smell the coffee!
yidiots.
goal.com
Complete garbage as usual from those fuckwits. Stopped reading that shite when they tried to publish an article saying Cesc was leaving for Inter Milan,that for me showed their true colours…bastards
Well lets hope the the AKN’s now realise that our latest form is relegation & theirs is title form.
Cant those fuckwits accept that Wenger has weakened this squad year in year out to satisfy his ‘project’.
Transfer money is no excuse – as that didnt stop him selling Pires,Gilberto, then replacing ‘over 30′s’ with a sack of shite like Sylvestre, having no keepers,leaving us short in defence & attack.
OH CHEER UP. WE WILL GET 3RD. These fuckers only up their game when we have something to play for. If we lose this game and come 4th Wenger would have to buy players to fill 10 positions in the first eleven.
He is allergic to spending so he will make sure they are up for it. Just relax guys.
Anyone think we will win against fulham??
Stonroy,
Keep the hate out, this is a blog of love, love and more love! U are only allowed to hate marmites. Please don;t tell Geoff!
People the Spuds will not be ahead of us next season, they do not have it in them. They are lucky to be a top 4 team, it will only be for this solitary year. Shitty will be top 4 next year and we MUST use this year to get in top talent before they are able to outspend us/everyone next year when they can offer CL football.
Spurs can finish above us!!! They look like they are catching up with us!! We have won 1 game in our last 8 so beating fuham won’t be easy!!
Twitch has proved to be a better manager this season than the fucking arrogant blind insane has been wenger
goal.com is a gossip site. If there are gossip or rumours flying they will publish it. Hardly a source really.
The hates gone mate.
Does somebody know if song,bendtner and clichy are back for sunday??
If tottenham finish above us sunday. It will be the worst day of my life! I’am nervous for the game. I don’t think that we will win!
I think they will be now Dutchman
spuds beat us for the first time 9 years i think it was and now they get to play CL! we have had an awful season no better than last!! rubbing salt into the wounds
If we cant even get at least point against fulham at home, then fucking hell, we dont deserve to be 3rd. Fulham havent won away since August FFS.
Plus they are bound to rest loads of players, but still, even a shite reserve player can score past Flappyhandski, the useless muppet.
EVERYONE READ THIS!!!! I sent goal.com an email saying why do you hate Arsenal so much, this is their response.
Dear Stonroy,
Last season we received similar complaints from Liverpool fans, and the only parallel that immediately occurs to me at very least is that they were two clubs getting close yet seeming very far. So while the fans were more optimistic, we, as critics, did not honestly believe Arsenal were good enough to win anything. That’s not bias or an agenda, it was just our hard line on the topic which we were entitled to have — and we ended up being right.
It’s a shame if what you’re saying is true that Arsenal fans are planning to boycott us, but Arsenal are the most popular club on our site by far — both with UK-based and worldwide readers. So hopefully the boycott won’t come to fruition, but ultimately, we won’t soften opinions or make them more political to appease fans like so many others do.
That being said, I should make it clear that when I said earlier “we, as critics, did not honestly believe Arsenal were good enough to win anything”, I wasn’t speaking on behalf of Goal.com as a company. There was no ‘official line’ on Arsenal — there never should be. I’m just referring to the majority of the comment and analysis that we have done on the club this season.
Thanks for getting in touch
Rob green
dont refer to them as “Spuds”
you’ll upset Stonroy and his two birds
if we want to compete i don’t understand settling for joe hart, neuer or akinfeev etc..
If you want to make a statement signing buffon or Lloris is the only acceptable option in goal..
If we start the season with almunia or fabianski in goal i’m taking the season off to avoid the disapointment..
Saying that though, our mug manager will sign some unknown cunt that plays for someone like valladolid
Personally i’d give juve gallas, arshavin and sagna + 5 mill to get buffon…
If you think we aren’t that desperate for a keeper your nuts!
spurs have got into the CL for the first time and have won a trophy over the last few years!!
well I got the point eventually, but they present themselves as a serious site from my perspective so it was a lil shocking when they tried to peddle that…
St tottering day is getting closer and closer? will they over take us in the near future nah I dont think so!!
tottenham improve each season and get better!! wenger is making us rot
Maybe Fizsman & Co will now wake up….. and stop fucking about with OUR CLUB.
lol even a regular joe reporter reckons arsenal are shit and wouldn’t win anything with the current squad.. Funny that.. Only our manager thinks other wise..
BTW, what did rosicky and eduardo do exactly to get contract extensions? add to that list diaby, denilson, walcott etc..
Our manager rewards medicrity so he can secure his bonus by not signing any player of note over 12m in 1 payment!!!
Maybe almunia is back too,i hope so..( i thought that i never was going to say this)
almunia
sagna-campbell-silvestre-clichy
song-nasri-diaby
rosicky-RvP-bendtner
That team has to beat fulham!
If not….
………but (Arsenal) are the most popular bla bla bla. I bet they have a standard letter they issue for these kinds of questions and depending on the club, they just insert the club name there.
Reggie:
On what we witnessed tonight, you maybe wrong.
DG. Agree , hope this is a wake up call to the club as this is not good tonight, they must never ever take over us.
They will struggle tho in the CL
I always found goal.com to be completely anti-Arsenal. This does not excuse their bullshit stories about Cesc and AA.
True there DG !!!
Play Mannone and hope he has a repeat performance against fulham..
If Fabianski still plays…….Grrrr..
OK, cram down…..now…..we WILL beat Fulham.
Because we’re playing at home, because the players will not want the shame of finishing below Tottenham, because they have one last chance to make the boss believe in them being on the first team.
Now that Tottenham have beaten Citeh, I am more confident than before because there is everything to play for.
Arsene won’t bring out a Carling cup team, he’ll bring out a team to win. He’ll drop the players who put in poor individual performances.
Bendtner and Clichy will play. He should go 4-4-2 and screw Nasri in offensive central midfield, play Arshavin there.
Also, we’ve been having to listen to Citeh dropping names like Torres and a whole host of others. Not this season. Citeh not in the Champions league gives Arsene 1 more season to get us up to scratch. They would have been a serious threat to overtake us had they got into the top 4 this season. Also with Tottenham hot on our heels will get Wenger a bit more serious about adding quality experienced players to the team.
“because the players will not want the shame of finishing below Tottenham, because they have one last chance to make the boss believe in them being on the first team.”
haha
are you drunk
fuck me some fans know nothing about this team
It was 11 years rob. (since the spuds beat us). They’ve won something like 12 of the last 13. we beat wolves a while back. It’s so depressing.
And i see that 12 may is the europa cup final, so fulham will play a weak team. Happy to see that!
Yes, we will at least get a draw out of this game, because we have song back and with song we can hold the 0. But without song, i’am not so sure.
I agree with playing Mannone, surely he’s earned a game against Fulham based on his previous performance against them.
so what if spurs are in the CL? they’ll be fucked with the extra games and pressure and their arseholes will go good and proper.
They wont hold onto a top 4 place because of it. this time next year it will be
Arsenal
Man u
Chelsea
Liverpool
finest
If finishing 4th for 5 years and counting didnt get Wenger to buy more experienced players i dont know what will
Or do you need to hear another “I believe in my very very young team” bullshite?
Surely Wenger must realise that he is in the last chance saloon now if he dont strengthen this coming season well words fail me ………
the togo cunt still hasn’t worked out the offside rule yet.
Incesc, I’m stone cold sober, and tbh I don’t see what your issue is with my post.
Last chance from whom?
The people who employ him are thrilled and according to reports are giving him an extension with a pay rise!
Everyone’s a little edgy here tonight. Later everyone, that includes you too AA23. Take it easy mate.
From the FANS choy !!
But what if we don’t beat fulham??( or don’t get a draw). Then wenger has to spend. But no, we will win. I’am sure!!
David, it’s reached the point where his policy of fielding nexperienced players doesn’t stand up to scrutiny, this team he’s gone on the record saying we need experienced players and admits that we need to strengthen.
